That that means something to you is quite sad given it'll mostly be fans voting for their own clubs signings, I haven't even voted because it doesn't mean anything, but obviously does to Wakefield fans.

Leading an internet vote poll is the best chance of success for a Wakey fan.....I'll stick with seeing my team win Grand Finals thanks

Pauli Pauli is winning because some people like myself have been unable to vote. Had the RLFANS voting system been not out of order for so many of us, genuine stars like David Mead would have had a real chance of winning this.

I haven't been able to vote either, plus I'm a Wakey fan. Make of that what you want.

No he wouldn't because Wakey fans just vote for one of their guys on mass whereas other teams don't care. You started last years and were championing Greg Bird but here's how it went

Bird - 8
Sene Lefao - 6
Greg Eden - 4
Matt Parcell - 4
Jake Mamo - 2

Total - 24

Sam Williams of Wakefield - 25

Let's be honest there's only 18 votes total since it was created. Wakey fans must be doing well being the only ones that have managed to vote when others haven't, myself included.

Funnily enough, I voted for Bird last year, how wrong was I.

You really do seem to have a bee in your bonnet about Wakefield this year Printer, don't know why. You support Leeds and GF, winners, so what if someone from Trinity is bigging up his team or any other team that is not the traditional big 4/5 teams.

If you and Vastman don't see eye to eye that's one thing, but you seem to think that Wakefield fans are the only ones that could be voting for their own players, which I doubt very much. Each club does it to a certain extent, especially if they've signed someone they think is a good signing, like what happened last year with Williams at Trinity. Who when you watched the Raiders before he came over here, he kept getting called by a number of comms, the best back up half in the comp and even though he didn't settle at Trinity, it's probably why he's walked back into a new contract with them.

Another thing is how many teams have their own websites like Saints, Cas, Salford etc, whereas Trinity doesn't, which is obviously skewing the votes a fair bit.

Also, you have no idea who voted for who, other fans could have voted for Williams. Speaking to fans who've watched the NRL over the years of other sides, they were surprised we managed to get him & he was a quality signing for us. Maybe just maybe some of those voted for him.

Also, I'm not sure what's wrong with people voting for Pauli Pauli, he certainly looked very much the part in the NRL.

Nothing wrong with bigging up your team. But always has to come with the shoulder chip with Wakefield, get a promising signing and awww it's not fair because if Saints signed him people would go on about it more or awww why are people tipping Saints and Wigan to finish above they did nothing this year when in reality they both did more. You can't even set up a reserve team without slagging off other clubs when we haven't even seen if you make a success of it yet and got touchy when somebody criticised your home shirt on the kit thread.

You've had one good season by your standards (an average one by several others standards) and we've been getting this constant big clubs are upset that Wakefield are doing well BS on the VT for most of 2017.

I fancy Wakey to win the Boxing Day game vs Leeds having seen the teams and if so I'm sure we'll hear cries of disbelief when people aren't tipping Wakefield to finish above Leeds in the table next season.

Only one poster with an obvious chip on the shoulder here

I suspect that a lot of Wakefield fans have confused Pauli Pauli with Junior Paulo. Fact: they are two different players.

The season will adjudicate this poll. If David Mead does not suffer serious injury he can be expected to run away with the big individual performances of 2018, even if Pauli Pauli does well.

And expect a fit Greg Bird to pick up where he left off against Leigh last September.

Wellington Albert

Obsessed little man or what - we'll see how it goes shall we.

Leeds only marginally better today as score suggests - Pauli P went well and physically he an absolute beast liked him from what I saw.

Hampshire also looked a very very useful signing indeed and was the best HB on the pitch imho but hey who am I.

How many games do you think that Hampshire will start in the HB's this season?
I don't think that it will be his regular starting position on very many occasions
I also can't see him nailing a starting spot down at all as he isn't better than any of the players in front of him in the pecking order at Wakey at 1,2/5 or 6/7
Useful squad utility player at best

So it should've been given our lineup, in fact you should've beaten our lineup but you couldn't even manage that in what was your only chance of silverware of the year
Obsessed.

No idea what you're waffling on about re lineups - are you drunk or simple?

Just giving you as much stick as you give bigger clubs.

The lineup comment is pretty simple, our lineup was missing loads so staying it was close is daft. You should've won given what both teams managed to put out.

Both sides had loads missing. Every year the pre season friendly who had the least 1st teasers debate happens on every club forum. Todays match was a good pre season friendly and leeds won the Wetherby Whaler trophy to go with your grand final trophy, congratulations well done.
